Reviews
Submitted June 14, 2010
"GREAT if you can get the battery to work."
I will replace it.
Sound
Very good sound quality.
Features
The mic is an accessory. Its a mini plug stereo that sits on top. Doesn't make it fit in pocket well. I wished it had ac power accessory and replaceable batteries.
Ease of Use
Middle of road interface. Easy to get good sound.
Quality
Battery sucks.
Value
Works great when it works. Battery life sucks. Even got an external USB battery to power it. Battery never held a charge for long and now its dead and I don't feel like paying them almost half the price of the unit to replace it.
